romney seemed angry that obama coddled them. he talked about how dodd/frank imperiled community banks. all banks went up today on a prospective romney swing and lighter regulatory scheme, i wouldn't chance it with the internationals. instead i'd stick with wells fargo viewed as domestic bank or go with really the true community banks, huntington bank, u.s. bancorp or key. take a romney kicker any day of the week. throughout the night romney repeatedly claimed he was the real friend of small business. even as we know saying something bad about small business has become the new third rail of american politics. this comment is typical. >> there was a survey done of small businesses across the country. said what's been the effect of obama care on your hiring plans? and three quarters of them said it makes us less likely to hire people. >> all right. let's take him at face value for a moment. small business truly gets a boost if you elect romney, you need some paychex. the company's growth is in the hands of small business expansion.
